No pressure, lol

Climate change has always been a thing. The planet has been going thru hot/cold cycles for millions of years.

There is no purpose for any life on earth. The planet survived just fine before life started, it will survive just fine when life is gone. (or until Sol goes super-nova, or whatever it's called when it expands and engulfs all the planets).

This is my first toe-in-the-water experience of the Fediverse. To be honest, I'm still trying to understand exactly how it all works, but I'm enjoying myself so far.

Well, I hope to become a regular - I'm currently in the middle of editing all my Reddit comments with PowerDeleteSuite. Once complete, my account will be deleted.

Many of the younger generations seem to accept that things don't last/break easily. I come from a time where there was a wiring diagram for the TV pasted on the inside back cover. Washing machines and other devices often had the schematics included. Repairing your stuff and keeping it running was the norm back then. Even if you couldn't, you probably had a neighbour who could. Planned obsolescence is a relatively new thing.
